I do not like not knowing where I lie on a game fund wise. Please move the $ somewhere else so I can see it. ### 4/5 — โหลดมาหลายครั้งแล้ววแต่่เล่นกับเพื่อนยังไง วอนผู้รู้ที่ค่ะ🥲🥲 *2024-07-07, version 1.27* เศร้า ### 3/5 — Cant see the money *2024-01-12, version 1.27* I cant see how much money I have. The amount of money is hiding behind Iphone’s dynamic island. Please fix. ### 3/5 — Yes ads but… *2024-01-09* So the “point” of this game is to watch ads to progress, you can progress without it but it’s slow, games like this are specifically designed that way. But half the ads don’t even work. Bubble arena, Bitlife and Match Factory among others, all have ads that don’t work, freeze up, and then you have to leave/close the game to clear it, erasing any money/diamonds made by watching the ad. I’ve only had the game for two days and it’s a complete nuisance for a “game” that is specifically designed to make you watch ads. I get ads, I do, but they need to work right to make people stay. I don’t want to have to close my app 15 times a day just to try and play it. ### 1/5 — *idle cooking tycoon *2023-08-09, version 1.27* I have been trying for 3 days to play this game. All is does is show “loading”. Nothing happens. I have removed and reloaded this game 3 times. I have rebooted my iPad 2 times ### 1/5 — Filled with bugs *2023-06-12, version 1.27* Won’t let me watch adds to get rewards won’t let me watch adds to get double income like I’m willing to watch adds but you won’t let me. I’ve missed out on 60 diamonds cause when I click watch add it just doesn’t ### 4/5 — Good game *2023-06-06* But needs some sort of piggy bank system. Same with the harbor, airport and farming games by the same developer. In the case of this cooking game, each tech, pot, bot and vehicle purchase and upgrade will contribute 1 gem to a “piggy bank” that would accrue until the player pays a fee to “break the bank” ### 1/5 — Fix *2023-04-14, version 1.27* Keeps resetting my progress. I quit. ### 2/5 — Bad from start, all upgrades need paying *2023-01-07* First load screen doesnt end. Then 2nd time it works, and you have to tap too much just to budge the thermometer. And 70% of all upgrades + 3/5 menus are require "real life cash", not in game gold/bucks/whatever. This really was a waste of time & a money grab. ### 1/5 — A Game But *2022-11-13, version 1.27* We Have Contacted A Major Bug, When I Opened the Game, It is Not Loading, Tried to Reopen But It Did Not Work, I Deleted the Game Making it Unplayable ### 1/5 — Do NOT buy the game *2022-10-29, version 1.27* This game is a scaaaaaaaammmmm because you can NOT exit from any screen and there must be ways that the game isn’t good. ### 4/5 — Good game. *2022-09-09, version 1.27* It’s a good game but I had a few problems. I got this game because I wanted an offline game to play but it was online. It’s a bit hard to get money your constantly time travelling to get that little more money. And when I tapped the watch add in the atm the add would not come up. There is just a few problems but it is a good game so I gave it a four star rating.🦊😋🙂 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I cant close the Fabrices *2026-01-15, version 1.27* First Mission. The X is behind the Diamond Shop. So i cant Close it to move on. Who programmed that stupid Option? ### 1/5 — โหลดเข้าเกมไม่ได้ *2026-01-07, version 1.27* เข้าหน้าแรกเกมแล้วไม่โหลดไปไหนต่อเลย ### 1/5 — ไม่ซ้ำ โดนหลอก *2025-10-20, version 1.27* ไหนว่าเล่นกับเพื่อนได้ ผู้รู้บอกหน่อย ### 1/5 — なんだこれは！！！ *2025-09-25* まるちげーかとおもったら放置ゲーだった ### 1/5 — ไม่ซ้ำ *2025-03-23, version 1.27* เล่นยากมากค่ะ ในไอแพดคือถ้าจะกดกากบาทมันก็ไปทับกับเพชรอีก เสียรมณ์มากที่สุด ### 1/5 — Ads *2024-10-27, version 1.27* Ads required to progress, ruins gameplay ### 1/5 — เล่นในไอแพดไม่ได้ *2024-04-20, version 1.27* คือควรปรับปรุงนะ ### 1/5 — Needs update *2024-02-19, version 1.27* Was fun but needs new levels ### 1/5 — . *2023-09-15* muito complicado ### 1/5 — Péssimo *2023-08-12* Muito ruim o jogo, é só juntar dinheiro e não fazer nada ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fair is Rare *2026-05-09* Dieses Spiel ist wirklich eines der Wenigen die einen einfach spielen lassen anstatt sie alle 2 Minuten mit Werbung zu quälen. Da ich diese Art von Spielen liebe kann ich mich wirklich entspannen gerade. Nur wäre es schön wenn die Anzeige vom Geld nicht genau unter dieser doofen Isle von IPhone liegen würde. 😭😭😭😭 ### 5/5 — REALLY GOOD IDEA *2024-08-18, version 1.27* Six stars. Also, for any new players, I found a really good idea. Since the rewards aren't actually daily, you should try closing and reopening the game to instantly get the reward rather than having to wait 24 hours to get 10 gems when you could just watch an ad. THIS IS WHY I'M IT SUPPORT IN MY CLASS. I'M A TECH WIZ.😎 ### 5/5 — ? *2024-01-02* divertido e sem propaganda ### 5/5 — Hi PEEPS! *2023-11-05, version 1.27* I absolutely love this game. The numbers you can get up to like 1 nonillion is crazy! I don’t think anything else but how great the game is! ### 5/5 — toduro *2023-07-10* “ó o tempo e ó o peixe, ó o peixe" KKKKKKKKK “ n põe mais peixe aqui não animal “ ai man, o mano tods e resenha dms mlk daora ### 5/5 — Bom *2023-06-28* “O u peixe”. Kkkkkkkk ### 5/5 — Great Game! *2022-01-11* I have played a few similar games. It’s a slow game, not over night. They have rewards to completing levels or collecting. Only glitch is the Guitar doesn’t show on the conveyor belt. I have not spent more than $15 on the game and have done very well in a weeks time. Suggestion for Game Makers. Give us the option to get rid of ads. I am getting a little burnt out on watching the same adds. ### 5/5 — VERY GOOD GAME *2021-10-14, version 1.26* thanks bro you are the best,this game is really good.i really like this game ### 5/5 — Hi *2021-09-23, version 1.26* Hi ### 5/5 — 굿게임 *2021-03-01* 굿게임 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
